It appears that an old /etc/texmf/texmf.cnf was not being removed
and the installation of tetex-bin would not overwrite it.
        I'm not sure if this was my fault or if I tried to do a normal
upgrade and it went wrong. ( i did use apt once without sufficient disk
space, and this broke a lot of stuff)
